Remaining active or restarting activity are often a struggle in late pregnancy and the early postpartum period. Mother-­to­-mother connection is the most ancient and trusted way for women to successfully ease their transition into motherhood. Join other mamas and soon-­to­-be mamas in this fun and functional workout group aimed at getting and keeping you moving, loving your body as it is, and connecting with one another. Moving Mamas is lead by a DONA trained doula and Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator. Additionally she is a two ­time marathon runner and mother of three. Children birth to walking are welcome to join their mama.

Topics discussed will include:

  • Breastfeeding
  • Sleep (yours and the baby)
  • Adjusting to motherhood
  • Exercise and nutrition
  • Siblings
  • Much, much, more!

Come prepared to move! Comfortable clothing (workout wear) and athletic shoes are recommended. We will be outside so dress for the weather (baby too!).

In the case of inclement weather we will meet at the Asheville Mall at the interior entrance of Belk adjacent to Hallmark and Starbucks.

Weekly workouts will include walking, stretching, stretching with your stroller if you have one, and breathing exercises. As the weeks go on we will add core strength training.

Bring your stroller, water, and a healthy snack.

Wings for Autism

“We want to help make air travel accessible to our friends and neighbors with autism spectrum disorders. So please join us as we share some “airportlove” on Valentine’s Day weekend with our very first Wings for Autism event! We invite families and their autistic loved ones to come to the airport to check-in for an imaginary flight – you’ll get a boarding pass, check in at the ticket counter, go through airport security, wait at the gate, and then board an Allegiant airplane. After this learning experience, you’ll deplane to the gate area for the #airportlove reception, where everyone gets a souvenir from their trip to take home.”

Wings for Autism is an airport “rehearsal” specially designed for individuals with autism spectrum disorders, their families and aviation professionals. The program is designed to alleviate some of the stress that families who have a child with autism experience when traveling by air. The program provides families with the opportunity to practice entering the airport, obtain boarding passes, go through security and board a plane. Wings for Autism also gives airport, airline, Transportation Security Administration professionals and other personnel the opportunity to observe, interact and deliver their services in a structured learning environment.”

Space is limited, so please register soon at the URL above.
